These are pictures of 6 of the 7 meals I had today (just forgot to snap a picture of the chicken meal). I'm proud of myself for sticking to the plan and very happy all my meals are ready for tomorrow. Bodybuilders who have the discipline to plan their meals and eat like this every day have my utmost respect. Also, a special thanks to my hero @chefirvine for making the perfect bender for protein shakes. #bodybuilding #nutrition #eattogrow #fitness #healthychoices

This is the situation in our kitchen right now: 17 pieces of chicken, 5 turkey burgers, and 3 pieces of salmon are cooking. I decided to start cooking early and feel awesome about it! #mealprepsunday #bodybuilding #morefoodplease #nutrition

Think of showing up for your workouts as showing up for your life. Exercising is a beautiful way to love yourself and honor the gift of your body. #workout #bodybuilding #youcandoit #mensphysique #fitness

Anyone who has ever made a resolution discovers that the strength of that determination fades in time. The moment you feel that is when you should make a fresh determination. Tell yourself, “OK! I will start again from now!” If you fall down seven times, get up an eighth. Don’t give up when you feel discouraged—just pick yourself up and renew your determination each time. The important thing is not that our resolve never wavers, but that we don't get down on ourselves or throw in the towel when it does. The fact that we realize we've become lazy is evidence we are growing.

Don’t give up! Every day, we have a new opportunity to do one thing that improves our lives and brings us closer to reaching our goals.

Exactly! It's unhealthy to take an "all or nothing" approach and let one bad day ruin your progress. We are all human and have setbacks. The important thing is how we deal with them. Thanks for sharing @jamesellisfit! #bodybuilding #motivation

I appreciate Dave Pulcinella’s insights and  tough love approach to training and failure. Almost all the things he talks about are challenges I have struggled with in my own training. Instead of discouraging me, this video reminds me that I am not alone. A lot of people are dealing with the same issues. I feel more motivated to overcome my challenges each time I watch this.
